Quilting thread for antique, vintage, and semi-modern machines
I have 30+ machines at my disposal. I've used all of them a bit as I cleaned, lubed and fixed them up. I have a quilt planned that I intend to use all of the machines on. Just a simple denim quilt using 6.5" squares and mostly straight stitches.
Although I'll be using different machines to piece the squares together I want to use one thread. If I can I'd like to find a large cone of thread suitable for the various machines. I want to use the same thread through out for the assembly of the quilt. I have the cone stands and my widget, so that is not a problem.
What thread would be best for such a project? I don't want really light or really heavy thread.
I'll be using it for the top and bobbin in round bobbins as well as long bobbins.
Oh, and I'd really like it to be available locally if possible or at least in the US.
TIA
Joe
